Even when shut down after a period of normal use, a large commercial nuclear reactor transfers thermal energy at the rate of 150

Sever21 [200]

Answer: $2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s$

Explanation:

Given

$Power\left ( P\right )=150 MW$

mass of core $\left ( m\right )=1.60\times 10^5 kg$

Average specific heat $\left ( C\right )=0.3349 KJ/kg^{\circ}C$

And rate of increase of temperature = $\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}$

Now

P= $mc\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$150\times 10^6=1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349\times \frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}$

Thus $\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=[tex]\frac{1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349}{150\times 10^6}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s$

Determine the potential difference between the ends of the wire of resistance 5 Ω if 720 C passes through it per minute.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 5 ohms

Charge, q = 720 C

Time, t = 1 min = 60 s

We know that the charge flowing per unit charge is called current in the circuit. It is given by :

I = 12 A

Let V is the potential difference between the ends of a wire. It can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = IR

V = 60 Volts

So, the potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

Raindrops hitting the side windows of a car in motion often leave diagonal streaks even if there is no wind. Why? Is the explana

labwork [276]

Answer:

because of the raindrop velocity relative of the car has a vertical and horizontal component

Explanation:

The car moves in a <em>horizontal direction </em>relative to the ground. The raindrops fall in the <em>vertical direction</em> relative to the ground.
Their velocity relative to the moving car has both vertical and horizontal components and this is the reason for the diagonal streaks on the side window.
The diagonal streaks on the windshield arise from a different reason.
The drops are pushed off to one side of the windshield because of air resistance.
